Diwali is so much fun with lots of food and firecrackers. I miss the firecrackers part in U.S, but to compensate that I made this really sweet treat.

7 cup sweet tastes similar to Mysore Pak, but it is way easy to make. As the name suggests it has 7 cups (a cup could be any measure) of ingredients and that’s it, cook them all together to make this delicious treat. You can also make 5 cup sweet, by omitting 1 cup sugar and 1 cup coconut.

Combine all the ingredients together in a heavy bottom pan on medium low flame.

Cook stirring occasionally for about 20-25 minutes or until the mixture starts to get frothy. At this stage, you have to be hovering around the stove more often, stirring. Keep stirring frequently for another 15-20 minutes.

After a while, the whole mixture starts to pull away from the bottom of the pan and starts moving with the spoon. Remove onto a greased plate at this point and allow to cool.

Score into squares or diamonds when slightly warm and enjoy the melt in your mouth taste of this simple sweet.

I've been resisting the sweet temptation that Jihva offered sofar, but you broke my resistance with this irresistible sweet. Now I must prepare these delicious diamond bars. Too much temptation they are for me.:)
